This is actually a very important see for anyone that appreciates music ... and it will be refreshing to see a couple of things in here that are important ... and one of the best ones is The Edge showing us a song without all the effects and stuff ... to give you an idea why some music is NOT progressive at all.
There are some really good things here, inclusing Jimmy's explanation of Achiles Last Stand and other bits ... and his history ... an dmake sure you check out the name at the start of it ... Gomelsky was his name! ... and we know that he is the father of a lot of progressive music, and based on what he did, he helped Jimmy "do his thing". And that thing, along with the other Jimi ended up being some of the most important guitar work that helped develop "progressive" music ... and yes, LZ deserves the mention. Jack would be more of the expressionist persuation, and blues oriented ... whereas The Edge I would consider a true rock pioneer with his band, but certainly not progressive at all ... very well defined and designed is a more apt description of his band's work!
And please add to your lists, if you can find it, that DVD about TOM DOWD ... you will never see another story that tells you more about the history of American music than that one ... and to think that he is responsible for one of rock's most memorable moments in rock music! It takes a man with an ear for folks playing it and when you find it, you gotta nail it! And he did!

Hi,
Some other things ...
200 Motels:
Out anytime on DVD ... FINALLY! And this is probably the beginning of prog ... as we would never want to know it. Sorry all you orchestra fanatics, but this one is the best!
Tangerine Dream: Phaedra 25th Anniversary
Finally got that DVD and what a treat it is ... nto sure that all of us can sit through almost two hours of the history of Tangerine Dream, but it tells you that these folks KNOW their synthesizers and can make the music as good, if not perfect, as it was before.
Klaus Schulze and Lisa Garrard: Rheingold
Acquired taste. Mostly because many folks here think that Klaus is just a turned on Sequencer and does nothing else but superimpose these. In case you decide that this is not for you, do check out the 2 extras on the DVD, one being a nice run through one of the engineers in the cutting room, and the other is Steven Wilson interviewing yours trully ... and if you don't think Steven does not know the history of "progressive" music and "krautrock" ... you will probably gain a massive appreciation for his intelligence and you can see why he is in such a high demand as a producer and mastering engineer. The DVD itself is all ad-lib and it is nice to see one person just flow with the sound, and another simply be able to add/subtract/change ... and still sound so good. And check out the audience reaction when he mentions doing a sequencer piece ... in case you don't think these people don't knwo the difference!
Caravan
That concert in the Nearfest? (have to check again!). Yeah, it was pretty nice and enjoyable. I still want to see the DVD of the concert that produced The New Sinfonia ... because the remaster of that concert is even better than the original album. And yes, the story did go that the orchestra would not do an encore since they would not get paid, until Pye said ... screw you, we're going out without you ... and when the orchestra members heard the roar, it appears they changed their minds and came in! It's not every day that appreciation for what just happened is ... a once in a lifetime opportunity, and you want to be a part of that!
Still want to get and see:
Egberto Gismonti ... but I am not sure that we can see him with Jan Garbarek, Charlie Haden and another Magico evening! I would be ok with Academia de Dancas! Or even nana Vasconcellos.
Terje Rypdal and David Darling ... someone ought to lock those two down again and record them. It's the greatest shame in music that no one here has heard that album EOS, but I want to get rich enough to have these two in my house getting paid the most they ever have for an evening concert for myself ... and screw you all that didn't check this out ... it's one of the most beautiful things ever recorded. And I want a DVD of it! Invitations and plane tickets will also be sent out to a handful of folks that earned it for music appreciation!
Vangelis would be nice ... but not sure he will ever do it ... way too much work to get it done. I think I would just invite him to my house and let him play around on the computer ... he would probably have a riot!

Going for Eric Johnson, THE Eric Johnson, not that Georgia state senate pinhead.
Seems to be turning into a live recorded music Friday and I'm not complaining. I just finished up a song in the set called Western Flyer. It wasn't in the original broadcast and is incredibly good. Eric Johnson's one of those things that didn't suck in the '80's, musically speaking. Edited by Slartibartfast - September 24 2010 at 21:08 |

I just got finished watching this:
Crystal clear sound, excellent cinematography and a mind-blowing performance of FoaBP. The second set was good as well, but the first one was just spectacular. |
